It is very frustrating, processing an application and taking its time is fine, but having your passport stuck for this long is just very difficult. My current employer requires me to travel something, and this has just long delay has caused trouble with my work as I had to cancel an important business trips today.
Hope they get back to us soon...
Oh god, that's so stressful! And if you ask for your passports back urgently, they might not even stamp it and it further complicates everything. I hope we all hear back soon!
